St Katherine's Dock Sundial

1 review of St Katherine's Dock Sundial

valued tourist attraction

This sundial is on the Jubilee Walk, near Tower Bridge. It's built with heavy chains, reminiscent of those that tie the boats to the ports along the Thames. When I was there, there was no sun, so you could not tell the time, but it is a valued tourist attraction for visitors to the city.
It's an equatorial sundial, with a steel wheel that's 3.66 meters, supported by three wires. It is a work by Wendy Taylor that was inaugurated in the 70's. The London docks was an industrial area that wasn't well taken care of, but now it's a great area. Christopher St James was the one who fixed the clock to make it work.
